sp. nov., isolated from rice seeds Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, endospore-forming bacterium, designated strain TD8, was isolated from surface-sterilized rice seeds ( L.). Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene indicated that strain TD8 should be placed within the genus (95.2–99.0 % sequence similarity); it exhibited highest similarities to CGMCC 1.7727 (99.0 %), ‘’ CGMCC 1.12449 (98.9 %) and CGMCC 1.3642 (97.5 %). Chemotaxonomic analysis showed that menaquinone-7 (MK-7) was the major isoprenoid quinone. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and one unidentified phospholipid were the major cellular polar lipids, and the major fatty acids were anteiso-C, anteiso-C, iso-C, C and iso-C, which supported the allocation of the strain to the genus . The digital DNA–DNA hybridization value between strain TD8 and CGMCC 1.7727 was lower than 70 % (22.60 %), and the average nucleotide identity score was 79.54±5.09 %, suggesting that strain TD8 represented a novel species in the genus . The genomic DNA G+C content was 37.5 %. Based on physiological and biochemical characteristics and genotypic data, strain TD8 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TD8 (=ACCC 61556=CICC 24889=JCM 33537).
